  1. Definitely worth a try. However as has been said, neck profile, nut width, string spacing at the bridge etc can have a bigger effect on playing comfort than whether the bass is multi scale or not. For me, it took a couple of minutes to get used to fanned frets - I switch between fanned and non fanned basses regularly without issue. Also, my Dingwall Super PJ5 with a 35" scale low B feels like a noticeably shorter scale instrument than my Xotic 5 string jazz basses with a 34" scale across all strings. There's much more to playing comfort than just the scale length of the strings themselves.

    Exactly how I use mine.

    Now, only wish would be to be able to record what I ear... the sound is so good.


    I know what you mean.
     

    In a roundabout way I can record what I hear as the sound I’ve set up in the WAZA is basically the same as I use when playing through my Helix Stomp (or Helix Native software) using my in ear monitors with my audio interface. Boss have just allowed me to take that setup with me wherever I go without a single cable in sight.
     

    Now if I ever dive into the spatial head tracking stuff that’s where I’ll be in irreplicable territory…

  3. Just bought one of these from a fellow basschatter and wow…they’re phenomenal. I’ve got everything set completely flat. No effects, just bass and Bluetooth audio streaming. The quality of sound is top notch, no farting out even when maxing the bass volume - plus to my surprise the cans themselves are actually very comfortable! I wasn’t sure what to expect with the rectangular cups but I’m very pleasantly surprised.

     

    I haven’t touched a manual, just unboxed the kit, downloaded the app and worked it all out. I was up and running within 5 minutes.

     

    Without doubt the best headphone practice amp I’ve ever tried. The previous holder of that title was the Phil Jones BigHead, which will now be up for sale I suspect. Bravo, Boss!

  4. I’ve just purchased a Boss WAZA Air (bass version) from Mark. Communication was great, postage swift and well packaged for transit. A thoroughly pleasant  experience from start to finish! 
     

    Mark is a credit to Basschat - I wouldn’t hesitate to do business with him again.

     

    Many thanks :D

  5. I had Bright Onion make me a custom pedal for exactly this purpose. I was able to decide upon the exact spec I wanted. Took a few short weeks and cost around £40 if memory serves. This was back in 2017 but still, I’m sure their prices are still very reasonable. Top notch service from a great UK company.

  6. I had a very lengthy and frustrating experience with Selectron UK too a few years ago, getting the preamp on my Double Four repaired. They were often a nightmare to get any clear answers from, and my repair took FOREVER. We’re talking months rather than the - at most - weeks that it should have. The delay was blamed on the fact that they had only very recently taken on the role of service centre for PJB products and my replacement components had to be shipped from the USA.
     

    When I first sent the amp off to them, I provided them with my home address for the amp to be returned to once the repair was complete. It took so long that I actually moved house and had to inform them of my new address. Quite some time later when the repair had finally been carried out, they emailed me to say my amp was being shipped back to me…addressed to my old address which I’d explicitly informed them not to use. You couldn’t make it up. Thankfully I responded to their email quickly enough that they were able to amend the shipping label before the courier had actually collected the amp from them.
     

    If I hadn’t been quick to reply and it was despatched incorrectly, I wonder how long it would have taken them to acknowledge their folly and ship me a replacement amp…!
     

    This was back around 2018 and clearly their quality of service has not improved since.
